Chapter 1427 Variables for Investing in Gold Finger Cards
In July, the two companies that Shi Lei invested in the United States entered the financing stage, and when they each got the financing, Shi Lei called up the investment gold finger card and made an income inquiry.
At this time, the company with a low valuation has also reached a valuation of more than 80 million US dollars, and they got an investment of more than 8 million yuan as they wished, and the acquisition process is not difficult.
Companies with higher valuations have reached valuations close to $700 million, and the financing process is just as quick and messy as the execution is even higher than that of another company.
Shi Lei entered the name of the first company on the investment gold finger card, and entered the investment amount of 8 million, and the query time was three months later.
The result of the inquiry made Shi Lei feel a little overjoyed, because three months later, the investment of 8 million turned out to be about 15 million.
This means that by the time the settlement date, the company had increased in value by nearly 90%.
On the last settlement date, the company's valuation was only more than $60 million, which means that Shi Lei's original investment will be worth more than $30 million on the October settlement date.
After deducting the $12.5 million reached in the previous quota cycle, Shi Lei's investment has increased by $17.5 million in this quota cycle.
After converting it into soft sister coins, this is already very close to 120 million.
However, this euphoria is only temporary, because the basic profit point of this investment in this quota cycle will reach as much as 500 million.
Continue to enter the name of the company with a high valuation, and at the same time Shi Lei enters the investment amount of 70 million, which is also set in three months.
What surprised Shi Lei was that after the value input this time, the interface of investing in the gold finger card stayed blank for a long time, as if the mobile phone suddenly had no network and was searching.
After waiting for two or three minutes, Shi Lei still couldn't wait for the result, Shi Lei's brows furrowed tightly.
Suddenly, Shi Lei's phone rang, and he took out his mobile phone to see that it happened to be the person in charge of this company.
Shi Lei answered the phone.
The other party's voice was obviously a little excited, and Shi Lei, who stammered, couldn't understand a word.
Shi Lei's English is not bad, of course there is no problem with normal communication, but this is not his native language after all, and the other party said it so strangely, Shi Lei is a little powerless.
"Don't get excited, what's going on? I remember you should have just gotten the investment and were about to sign the investment agreement, right?"
The other party was still chattering so that Shi Lei couldn't understand it, as if he heard someone cheering in the background.
Shi Lei had to ask patiently: "You calm down first, you are like this, I can't understand what you are saying at all." My English skills are limited, but I don't even understand your wife as far as you're saying now, right?"
The other party took two deep breaths, and Shi Lei found that all the voices in the earpiece had disappeared, and it should have been the other party covering the microphone.
It took a full minute before the other party was back online.
"Mr. Shi......"
Shi Lei smiled: "Are you emotionally stable now?"
The other party was a little embarrassed and said: "It's really exciting, we have been stuck in a technical point, and just a few minutes ago, that technical point has been overcome." Now our people are working on the calculations. ”
Shi Lei frowned and said, "The technical point has been broken, do you mean that the product will be greatly improved?"
The other party took a deep breath and said, "Yes, if the results of the calculation can be conclusively confirmed." ”
"How long does it take?"
"At least one day. ”
"Then you call me ......?" Shi Lei seemed to already know what the other party meant.
He paused again and said, "Once this technical point is broken, once it passes the final calculation and is announced, our company's valuation will rise by at least 50 percent." So, we ......"
The other party suddenly became hesitant and seemed unable to speak.
Shi Lei had already understood the other party's thoughts, and said: "Therefore, the B round of financing is out of place, because you think that after breaking through this technical point, the company's valuation can exceed one billion?"
"Mr. Shi, will it be ...... if we go back on the moment when we are about to sign the investment agreement and say that the company's valuation will be re-examined?"
The other party is obviously hesitant, after all, the current valuation is 700 million, and the amount of financing is 70 million US dollars. If it can really be like what he said, because the breakthrough of this technical point has caused the company's market value to rise by about 50%, then the company's valuation will exceed one billion at once.
As a result, 10 percent of the share financing will reach more than $100 million, a difference of $30 million in investment.
Shi Lei thought for a while and said, "Do you think the difference in the financing amount of 30 million US dollars is more important than the rise in the company's market value?"
The other party was silent for a moment and said, "But, after all, it is 30 million US dollars, and with these 30 million, we can do a lot of things." ”
"But your credit system is broken, which will give you a very bad reputation in the investment world. Of course, the agreement has not yet been signed, and it is normal to go back on it. However, I used to be an entrepreneur, and now as an investor, and this investment has nothing to do with me, I personally believe that a company with a good reputation system is far more important than the $30 million. Dude, your goal is to eventually build the company into a company with a market value of 10 billion or more, not to dwell on the meagre $30 million in financing. ”
The other party took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Shi, what should we do now? If we sign a contract like this, it won't add more credibility to the company." ”
Shi Lei nodded and said, "Tell the other party that you have been tackling key technical points, and now you have finally made a new breakthrough." Therefore, everyone needs to devote themselves to the verification of this research, and the signing of the investment agreement needs to be delayed. ”
"And then?"
"Then, wait until you pass the calculation, this technical point has really been overcome, and then continue to sign a contract with the other party. Remember, don't ask for a penny, this 30 million will be the beginning of the company's good reputation. ”
The other party sighed and said in great confusion: "That's 30 million US dollars, and these 30 million can at least delay the company's next round of financing for a few months." ”
Shi Lei understands that a delay in financing for a few months means that the company still has money to operate, which means that the company's valuation will grow further.
"I told you the truth, this is the same experience as an entrepreneur, you decide how to choose. With that, Shi Lei hung up the phone.
At the same time, he also understands why investing in gold finger cards will be delayed to produce results, because black cards also need to be recalculated, and the company's valuation will become higher because of this technological breakthrough. What's more, the people at the helm of the company have not yet decided on the final trade-off. Whether it is financed at a valuation of 700 million or a valuation of 1 billion that is likely to be achieved will definitely have a big impact on the value of this company in three months.
And this decision is the biggest variable in the company's valuation after three months, even if it is omnipotent like a black card, you need to wait for this variable to become quantitative.
Shi Lei returned to the interface of investing in the gold finger card in his mind, and he saw that the coordinate system had finally been generated, and the curve had already meandered. This means that
